James Meredew's 'Tripper' Photo Exhibition is next Friday night at The Foxes Den in the upstairs space of independent cafe The Crazy Fox.

James Meredew is a photographer from Cornwall, currently based in Falmouth. Focusing on analogue methods Meredew has produced a series titled ‘Tripper’ for his first solo exhibition and release of his self-published photo zine trilogy of the same name. More here:http://jamesmeredewphoto.co.uk/

Tripper’ is a series of imagery recorded during three separate excursions to South America, Vietnam and Iceland. Afforded by various day jobs Meredew has left for these adventures in the full knowledge of returning to the U.K penniless and forced back into the daily grind in order to pursue the next destined adventure. By travelling outside of his local environs to these unknown territories, Meredew has chosen to record intimate and spontaneous moments that capture his gaze offering an insight into his transient experiences and impromptu recognition. These locations are far apart but the experience is tied together personally via the lens of Meredew’s trusty 35mm Cameras.

EXHIBITION: 'Tripper' by James Meredew Opening party: 24 Jul 2015, 6.30pm - 9pm Running from 24 Jul 2015 – 3 Sep 2015

Come along for a drink and and photography Bristol peoples.

Through the Door: ‘666′ by Luke Van Aurich.

OGA’s comrade from the other side of the pond,  Luke Van Aurich (based in Melbourne, Australia) has mailed us over a recent photo zine he’s produced titled ‘666′. As seen in his previous submission ‘You Are Here’ in collaboration with Matt Naturani, he’s continued the development of his punchy high key colour approach. Like mouthwash for your eyes.

In Bristol we’re just getting over a bleak, grey winter and this publications imagery reminds you of summers potential and the moments that are yet to be snapped this summer when the weather is fine again.

Thanks Luke, keep up the good work man!

Through the Door: ‘Surface’ by Ettie Wyatt Gosebruch and Jodie Blackwell.

Ettie and Jodie are based up in Leeds, U.K and got in touch with OGA to send over a copy of their ‘Surface’ publication featuring photography and text created as a collaboration between the pair. 

The edition includes a folded A4 xerox inserted into the cover via cuts, adding another surface to the publication. This xeorx contains text that tells us:

“It’s 10 o’clock at night, and you’re watching TV in the living room. The house is snug, the days’s last cup of tea warming your hand as you rela-

ping-ping! ping-ping!

You’re roused from the tedium of the ads by the door bell’s piercing interruption. Your spine stiffens. Across the room, a look of baffled indignations weeps across your husbands face,

‘probably just bloody kids.’

You move to twitch the curtains - 

‘No, they’ll know we’re here!’

His expression has changed to one of growing panic, reminding you of an animal stalked as prey. Really, you think, evolution hasn't brought us that far from the primitive time of caves and forests, the open plain, warthogs and warriors...

You shake yourself from the stupor.

It’s time for bed.”

This approach works. The snappy mini tale that introduces a series of banal photographs of suburban environs really creates a world and mindset that exists within the publication and to the viewer when absorbed.

Thanks ladies, good stuff!

More from the two here: Ettie Wyatt Gosebruch and Jodie Blackwell.

Yubey Delgado is a photographer and illustrator based in San Hose, Ca. He’s also a member of F/2.09 Stockton Photo Collective.

Yubey has been contributing to OGA for time and we were pleased to see another installment of his zine en-devours arrive through our door in Bristol.

We took this piece alongside the rest of the OGA zine archive down to Falmouth for the ‘Going Nowhere’ exhibition last March. SOME IMAGES HERE but have yet to post some snaps of the edition. Titled ‘Night on the sun’ this edition stands 16 page strong, staple-bound, full black and white digital printed.

Super lo-fi with great spreads, both jarring yet harmonious.

Thanks Yubey.

An exhibition featuring the work of six young artists exploring photography, film and sound. This show is an exploration of two dimensions of life: realism and the abstract, within a variety of mediums. Considering intersection of nature, feelings and dreams; series of works represent experiences of artists through combining their visual and emotional stimuli into broken, nonsensical story lines. We, as human beings, are independent living cells of varied particles who are able to create and recreate. We live and experience, making other beings relate to the dynamic processes in our life. We are therefore able to create memories and build images of our own microcosmos. The intention is to juxtapose the subconscious and conscious as two ends of a continuum.

Featured artists: Emilija Milusauskaite Szilvia Bolla Ada Xiaoyu Hao Magda Krzyszczak Halszka Staniewicz Hugh Smyth PRIVATE VIEW: Thursday, 14th of May / 6pm SHOW: Friday, 15th 4pm - 8pm Saturday, 16th 1pm - 8pm Sunday, 17th 2pm - 6pm

“Who and why makes photography books in Russia?”

Documentary photographer and artist Jana Romanova started to self-publish her own photography books in Russia in 2012 at the time when interest to photobooks only started to appear in the country with only few people actually working in this field. During the talk Jana will tell the short history of self-published contemporary Russian photobooks and the way they are connected and disconnected from the world’s tendencies and market, and if there is any “special way” of making and developing photobooks in Russia.

16th April 2015 7pm (Doors open 6pm) £2 / FREE ICVL MEMBERS
